Greg Joseph, a former kicker for the Minnesota Vikings, will join with the Green Bay Packers and remain in the NFC North, his agent said on social media on Tuesday.
According to NFL Network, there could be a $1.295 million value to the one-year contract.
Agent Brett Tessler stated on Twitter that Joseph, 29, “liked this opportunity but had other interest.”
In 2023, Joseph, newly signed Jack Podlesny, and incumbent Anders Carlson—who struggled as a rookie—will compete with each other at kicker for Green Bay.
In 2022, Joseph set a record for the longest field goal (61 yards) and the most game-winning field goals (five in 2022) for the Vikings. Last season, he converted 24 out of 30 field goals (eighty percent) and 36 out of 38 extra-point tries (94.7 percent), including a 54-yard long kick.
